99 Chevy Suburban

[Mike Burke]

My dad got his suburban back from a local detailer in the before pics

It was hideous........I mean really bad swirls and holograms, scratches , and scuffs all over the place. He paid some one $250+ to do this. The guy said he couldn't get the oxidation off the hood....I don't think he knew what he was doing. Well............

That was before I found this site and started detailing. This is my forth correction project. It's not perfect but a far cry better than it was.

After it was washed at the coin wash and ONR in the nice warm shop..............

I used: The wolfgang system and about 16 hrs

TSR
WGFG
WGDGPS
and Collinite 845 on top

Enjoy

how long after your dad had it "detailed" were the pictures taken? cause that IS NOT a freshly detailed vehicle

[Kristopher1129]

Man, that was quite the detailer huh? ha, guess we are not all autogeeks

Looks great man. Nice job!

[StephenK]

oh and yes nice turn around

He paid $250 for that?!?!!?? WOOOOOWWWWWW!!! Great correction, but shocked he paid for that!!!!

[Kristopher1129]

It's crazy how someone can get that kind of money for a job like that. He should have gotten his money back. There's no reason to give a customer back their vehicle like that.

[Mike Burke]

Thanks..............

Now I understand when you guys talk about the "Hack" detailers out there. And some customers don't know what a "Real" detail or paint corrections is . My dad will know from now on. He even asked me..... Whats the best way to wash it now ?

And the best part...........I have already gotten another detail to do from this one.

what was the detail shop suppose to do when they had the truck? and how soon after did you get it and take these pictures?

[Shawn T.]

Great job! That detailer really messed up that truck.
